"Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts."  

The military and theater communities are actually considered very similar: You have a group of people trying to accomplish a mission greater than themselves.

Wesley Cannon has worked tirelessly over the last couple of years to build a reputation and growing number of audience/fans around the world. With his reputation as a former US Army soldier he has now expanded his horizon to movie producing, acting and Law Enforcement at the same time. Similar to Adam Driver, he joined the army after the 9/11 attack to serve his country. He's one of the industry's talents who joined the movie industry after serving in Iraq for seven years. 

Wesley believes to strive for perfection in his work and leave a positive impact in the world. He is a dedicated individual who strives to spread knowledge with whatever he does, be it producing/acting in a movie or being a Police Officer. He found his passion at a young age which helped him to become successful in all his endeavors. Working backstage in haunted houses planted the seeds for what would become Wesley's love for filmmaking. He got to see props, special effects, and actors at work up-close. That made him gain a love for all the tools of storytelling being employed in the family's haunted houses. The experience also built in him a love for horror as a genre, a passion that translated into a love for horror films that he carried for his entire life.

He is known to be a creative producer and energetic actor who can constantly think of fresh new ways to present new ideas to his fans, the positive impact, and inspiration he is leaving on the younger generation is what makes him stand out.

Cannon is dually sworn in law enforcement with being both a shift patrol sergeant and a Sheriff's Deputy in his local area. While performing his duties in Law Enforcement he finds the time to include what he loves best, which is making films.

In the present day, Wesley Cannon has a hand in many different lines of work. He is now the owner of Hollywood History, a business located in Goldsboro, North Carolina. With his business he brings Hollywood history to his home state by providing productions with movie and television assets. His business also connected him with a lot of big figures in the film industry, which opened the way for him to try his hand at being a producer and an actor on different occasions. Both of which allow him to be a major part of an industry that he has loved since he was a little kid.
